In order to ensure that other airspace users can maintain access to airspace that they currently enjoy, LBA has drafted Letters of Agreement to demonstrate how access can be facilitated for several areas around the Airport. The purpose of a LoA is to ensure that all airspace users are aware of the type of air traffic that may be encountered and how users should participate to ensure that traffic can be handled safely and efficiently. This document contains four separate Draft LoAs; two of the LoAs (Leeds East Airport and Sherburn Aeroclub) have been agreed in principle subject to a successful outcome of LBA’s ACP submission. The third and fourth LoAs (Upton Corridor and Grassington Box with the Gliding Community) have yet to be agreed in principle with the gliding community. The Upton Corridor LoA has been agreed in principle with Doncaster Sheffield Airport (DSA) who currently holds the agreement with the BGA, but the proposed amendment has yet to be agreed in principle with the British Gliding Association (BGA) and other General Aviation parties. The draft is included and any update to agreement in principle will be submitted to the CAA.

These LoAs articulate the conditions required for aviators to access the airspace in order to ensure that the airspace is manged safely and efficiently. The agreement of these LoAs is subject to CAA approval of the airspace. Therefore, they can only be agreed in principle at this stage. The LoA for the Upton Corridor has been agreed in principle between LBA and Doncaster Sheffield Airport (DSA) but agreement has not yet been received from the gliding community. Engagement will continue with the Regional Soaring Airspace Group (RSAG), the British Hang-gliding and Para-gliding Association (BHPA) and if agreement is subsequently achieved, or if the draft LoA alters, then the CAA will be updated accordingly. The following LoAs are included within this Enclosure Report: 1. Sherburn Aeroclub (SAC) and Leeds Bradford Airport (LBA) 2. Leeds East Airport and LBA 3. Grassington Box – LBA and BGA/RSAG Sutton Bank 4. Upton Corridor – LBA, DSA and RSAG and BHPA. Leeds Bradford Airport ACP | Introduction 1 70818 40 Encl 10 | Issue 1 FOR PUBLIC RELEASE 2 Sherburn Aero Club and LBA 2.1 Overview This Letter of Agreement was originally drafted to ensure support of an Airspace Change Proposal to implement GNSS (RNAV) approaches at Sherburn-in-Elmet airfield. Following engagement with Sherburn Aeroclub (SAC), LBA modified the proposed airspace design specifically to accommodate the requirements of SAC and Leeds East Airport. SAC has accepted that any further access to LBA proposed airspace can be agreed via a LoA or via a tactical clearance following coordination. Any updates to these agreements will be submitted to the CAA accordingly.
